Epiphany

a new age of reason, brain treason to trick the mind what
good is searching if nothing's there to find? we arrive at
this place of no return my brother only to discover that
our minds have led us away so far from the painful
truth of who we are

what's right is wrong, what's come has gone, what's clear and pure is not
so sure it came to me at all promises become a lie, all that's benign corrupts in time (mountains don't stand the test of time)
the fallacy of epiphany

come forth bear wotness, see the profit from your loss
beg for forgiveness only after you tally the cost we
arrive at this place of no return my sisters only to dis-
cover that our values ran us aground on the shoal in the
sea of what we could be

if it's real for me do I have to prove it to you? why do
revelations fade to cold blue untruths? it's oh so
relative subservient in total to one's perspective
